LL-37
Cathelicidin peptide is a kind of peptide family protein which can inhibit the protease Cathepsin-L and has antimicrobial effect. Cathelicidin peptide is a kind of peptide family protein which can inhibit the protease cathepsin-l and has anti microbial effect.LL-37 may play an antibacterial role in Hp induced gastritis.
LL-37, known as hCAP18 as well, is the C-terminal part of the unique human cathelicidin identified to date named human cationic antimicrobial protein (hCAP).
LL-37 exhibits a variety of immunomodulatory functions such as bactericidal action, chemotaxis, activation of chemokine secretion and antisepsis effect [1].
The synthetic LL-37 peptide has been shown to suppress the inflammatory response induced by LPS and other TLR ligands [2].
